Margets Gets Lucky

Leo Margets raised to 4,500 under the gun, and a player in middle position moved all in for just over 20,000 total. Action folded back to Margets, and she snap-called with {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}. Her opponent looked like he was good for a double up with {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}. But the flop came {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{2-Clubs}, giving Leo the lead. The {9-Diamonds} turn and {j-Clubs} river sent him packing.

"Sorry," Margets said. Another player at the table yelled at her for apologizing when she wasn't really sorry. "I am," she said. "I don't want to win like this. I don't mind getting the put, but ..."

Margets is up to 145,000 now.
